tuddl new working berlin gallery crystal ball berlin cat art — New Works, Tuddl, Katzenkunst, Bremen 2004

Since the 80ties, in painting, the discovery of artistic work of cats is consistently centre of attraction in the discourse of abstract expressive art. For the first time in Berlin, Tuddl exhibits objects and new works on canvas.The expressive and intense works own a fascinating sensitivity in their spontaneous gesture. The choice of colours and the texture are inimitable in its interaction and satisfy by its intuitive facility. In modern art Tuddls´ Paw Slash Coverings of artworks from human colleagues take an eminent position. With his pads he transformed works and postcards from Walt Disney, Manfred Kirschner, Monika Müller Kroll, Wolfgang Müller, Gerhard Richter, Jelena Simic and others. In request of the artist within the exhibition there will be a cat lounge, as a comparative installation with more pictures from human artists.

jesusboutique – All You Need Is Lost

27. August – 10. October 2010
Sa. 2. October: Long Night of Performance

The actions of the jesusboutique artists focus in their work political and social absurdity. In this relation they unmask the subjective as a reflection of an illusion and distortion of own sense. One could say in their installations and performances jesusboutique act as the narrative element in an apparently demystified outside world. So they offered the Temporäre Kunsthalle including the actual exhibition (curated by John Bock) and associated café and bookshop on the web site “immobilienscout24”. The hall that is to be finally closed and deconstructed on the 31st of august should be, according to the artist duo leaded to a wise aim. Through the fact of its actual installation the building features 3 attached floors with enough space to live. In case that it is to break away categorically, jesusboutique propose that the “Palast der Republik” should be reconstructed to stand as a steady spot for a Kunsthalle in Berlin. It is to fight against waste and hedonism. Political, Social and cultural disparities are to be dissolved. Art is to be dying says jesusboutique, while Jonathan Meese is proclaiming the revolution of it, they claim to release it from its sickness. From the 27th of august the actors of jesusboutique show “All You Need Is Lost” and fill the space with paintings, clothes and what they like to do, of Crystal Ball gallery in Kreuzberg. In winter the first record of jesusboutique will be released.

Ali Mongo – Et in Arcadia ego

Exhibition opening on Fri. 4 June at 8 p.m.
Sat. 31. 7. 2010 San Francisco Night/ Finissage at 8 p.m.
Performances by Laura Bean and Justin F. Kennedy

Crystal Ball Gallery presents the works of Mongolian-born artist Ali Mongo (º1938) who lives at the moment in San Francisco. The title of the exhibition “Et in Arcadia ego” (Even in Arcadia I exist) refers to the ironic combination of a quotidian conviviality with the shadow of death in Ali Mongo’s work. The artist’s imagery fuses inspiration drawn from his Mongolian roots with creative impulses from his travels as a seaman around the globe. In his colourful paintings the artist creates a garden populated by animals, creatures and humans, connected through his impressions and thoughts. A special iconography of abstract forms mixed with figurative gestures is constructed through pushed pointillism and waves of the paint brush. Ali Mongo, whose name always changes on the go, is influenced by modern art as well as by the daily human interrelationships that catch his eye in North Beach, a neighbourhood in which the Beat-spirit somehow never really died. In North Beach Ali Mongo is a well-known character. Photographed by many, he has also had poetry dedicated to him, such as Dave Steel’s Cognac Apprenticeship with Sammy Ali Baba. Outside Ali Mongo’s window, where Grant corners onto Fresno Alley, the blues pulsate out of the Saloon and provide him with the necessary musical vibe. Around the corner is Café Trieste where Ali Mongo paints every day. In the 1950s and 1960s Café Trieste was a legendary meeting place for Beat movement writers, sex-related performers and activists. Nowadays it still continues to attract artists and writers. His nights Ali Mongo spends in the sailors bar Specs at the other side of City Lights bookstore. The small size of his paintings is not only the result of living permanently in cramped hotel rooms. In contrast to the present-day art scene the humility of his work has an inimitable magnitude about it. Mongo will be present during the exhibition by way of a video message.

Andreas Kotulla – Weihnachten in Tirol mit der Feichter-Familie und weiteren Veranstaltungen

Opening on Fri. 26th. March at 8 p.m.
27.03. until 23.04.2010 with Finissage at 8 p.m.

Christmas in Tyrol with the Feichter family, Andreas Kotula

Andreas Kotulla works in the areas of painting and drawing that are approximate to each other. He uses color more as an object-like means. Their pasty, gestural and often reduced drawing mission also always implies the constitution and visual blurring on the image to be reproduced. The artist very often uses prints reproductions of photographs, which he translates constructively into his medium.

His artistic gesture is adapted to the view and makes the imagery appear in a way of vision. Kotulla’s works are often uncommentless, unpretentious and humorous, in a subjective selection that removes the individual motif as fragmentary from the world.

For the window pane and the space of the gallery, Andreas Kotulla will bring together a series of black-and-white drawings of group photos and “events” in an installation that shows us subjective, humorous and mysterious assumptions of the artist. In Kotulla’s translation, the processes and results of human society seem irritating, downright exemplary and full of blank spaces. The egocentric, physical separation of the individuals appears inbridgeable, even in the embrace, in the picture.

In A Shadow Box (projected drawings)

Opening on Friday 12. February 2010 at 8 pm
February 12 – 20. March 2010

In his 1899 text “Screen Memory,” Sigmund Freud considers how memories are permeable and can be recalled in an altered state. The screen memory refers to the temporal separation between the consciousness and the object of memory. In 1925, Freud revisits this concept in “A Note on the ‘Mystic Writing Pad,’” in which he suggests a common children’s toy might be a metaphor for the way that memories accumulate in the mind. With the lifting of the transparent top page, figures are erased, and new drawings can be made; however, the pressure of the writer’s hand leaves behind traces, recorded on a medium just beneath this diaphanous surface. With reference to these ideas, the exhibition “In a Shadow Box” will transform the gallery space into a dark room for exploring the ontology of drawing. Like a shifting archive of images, unique drawings will appear and dematerialize into shadow and light through the media of transparency and glass. The viewer is invited to take part in an associative thinking process about the latent strategies of remembrance. Images will fluctuate upon the wall as if those imaginings of the mind, which Schopenhauer once described as a kind of cognitive projection, can be rendered ever more fleeting and ephemeral.

Fort – Horror Vacui

Exhibition opening on Fri. 13. November at 8 p.m.
13.11. – 29.12.2009
Finissage am Die. 29. December at 8 p.m.

The artist collective Fort (Anna Jandt, Jenny Kropp und Alberta Niemann) work through a system of references using documentary, objects, stories and their interrelations. In their installations and engineered spaces, Fort construct precise interiors with conscious references made through the choice and placement of objects. They create poetic, surreal spaces and performances. Thing, action and derivation, as well as their historical and scientific evaluation collide with a dream like logic- through the revelation of complex unconscious structures and enigmatic backgrounds.

The stories of the entities, excerpts and apportions become parts of a mystic documentation. Things are copied, multiplied and reflected. They become signs, representative information of a world remembered, transforming into catalysts of cognitive processes of a cruel, poetic reality.

At this mysterious point of human perception; the twins, the forgotten, the unclear identity, Fort begin – with their belief in the impossible and the legendary in this world, to work for a change.

Galerie Crystal Ball – Karneval der Galerien

Carnival of the Galleries, Berlin 11.11.2009

Gallery Crystal Ball at the Carnival of the Galleries, Berlin

The Crystal Ball Gallery is sending an embassy as an autonomous art block to the first Berlin carnival of the galleries. Hotzi, Motzi and Zoei made the demands “Silence money for artists!” and “Free beer for all”. Gentrification back and forth, artists should not continue to produce unpaid NO art. The widespread assumption that artists are forced to make art for obsessive, psychological or social reasons, is finally receiving a blessing. We do not want a Temporary Kunsthalle to plug the polithistorical Castle Square Hole, but the Temporary Artist’s Pension! money, for all artists who no longer comment on these and other social standards. With the basic supply of artist silence, the monetary inaction, the saliva licking of the gallery scene finally ends and the art market empties away weakened from its high-end staff, its germ-free gallery houses and art? Shares. Artists are rethinking your role! What else are you as simple art theory coasters! Get out of the self-crisis into consciousness! The crisis is over! Long live the crisis! On to the artist general strike! … Excerpt from the Büttenrede of Galerie Crystal Ball, Manfred Kirschner, Berlin

Wolfgang Müller – Séance Vocibus Avium

Exhibition opening in the Crystal Ball Gallery and the Dörrie Priess Gallery on 25 September at 7 pm

26. 9. – 6. 11. 2009

Séance Vocibus Avium (I)

The only completely exterminated bird originally native to Europe is the North Atlantic giant auklet (Alca impennis). Its last occurrence is off the southern Icelandic coast on the rocky island of Eldey. On 3 June 1844, the last two birds, a breeding pair, were killed there by the fishermen Jón Brandsson, Sigurður Ísleifsson and Ketill Ketillson from Hafnir by turning their necks in order to sell their bellows and offal to a Danish bird collector. This silences the bird’s song forever.

After his first trip to Iceland in 1990, Wolfgang Müller formed a giant auk from modelling clay, fabric, paper, paint and chicken feathers. In 1994, on the occasion of the 160th anniversary of its extermination, he reconstructed the bird’s vocalizations in the radio play studio of the Icelandic radio station stöð 2, using the Icelandic actress Kristbjörg Kjeld as his medium. Using modern studio technology, the bird’s calls are reconstructed and thus made audible for the first time since its extinction in 1844. The reconstruction is based on historical scientific descriptions, such as those of Dr. Alfred Newton from Cambridge. In 1854 he asked the sailors from Hafnir about the last minutes in the life of the last giant eagles and published their detailed statements in 1858 in the ornithological journal “Ibis”.

Other bird species, mostly exterminated by direct or indirect human intervention, originate mainly from North and Central America, Madagascar, Australia, New Zealand and the islands of the Pacific Ocean. Since the 16th century, an estimated one hundred and fifty bird species have become extinct. Descriptions of the vocalizations of very few of these exist.

In addition to the giant eagle, ten other bird species are among them, whose calls can now be heard simultaneously in the Galerie Dörrie * Priess and the Galerie Crystal Ball. Wolfgang Müller gave ten well-known musicians scientific descriptions of a selected species and asked the respective participants to leave their bodies and slip into the bird body assigned to them. At the moment the bird becomes a bird, music and musicians disappear. The calls of long-silenced birds resound.

Séance Vocibus Avium (II)

The corresponding radio play “Séance Vocibus Avium” of the artist just won the Karl-Szuka-Award 2009 – considered the most renowned award for audio art in Europe. In the exhibition Séance Vocibus Avium, taking place in two Berlin galleries – Crystal Ball and Dörrie Priess – Wolfgang Müller presents drawings and audio sounds he produced, based on historical and scientific descriptions of eleven extinct birds. The simultaneous presentation of Séance Vocibus Avium in the context of two different gallery spaces continues Wolfgang Müller’s concept: the synchronism of analogy and diversity. Wolfgang Müller enlisted the help of prominent musician friends: Namosh, Khan, Justus Köhncke, Nicholas Bussmann, Max Müller, Stereo Total, Frieder Butzmann and Annette Humpe- in the reconstruction of the bird sounds. With delicately rendered colour pencil drawings Müller approaches the shape of the lost birds.

His reconstruction process begins with the available materials: taxidermy birds, historical images and scientific descriptions concerning the behavior of the species. The resulting drawings are different for each species, but unmistakably related. Wolfgang Müller opens up a novel space with his work. It stands in a touching alliance to the scientific efforts, to describe and comprehend these no longer existing animals. A new reality is created.
